Suneel Darshan, a filmmaker who had a long and fruitful professional relationship with actor Akshay Kumar in the 1990s, recalled how the actor abruptly withdrew from his production Barsaat after His wife, Twinkle Khanna, allegedly disapproved of him working with Priyanka Chopra and told him not to. Suneel claimed that Akshay dropped out of the project, which he went on to produce with Bobby Deol instead.
Suneel advised his fellow actors not to let their personal lives get in the way of their careers and to be ready for occupational hazards in an interview with Bollywood Hungama. Additionally, he implied that Twinkle was misinformed and should not have taken things as seriously as she did.
“Akshay Kumar and Priyanka Chopra were a great match because they had a lot in common,” he said, remembering how they had shot a song for Barsaat together and were about to start filming when Akshay pulled out. “They had fantastic chemistry.” I thought the song was lovely; there was no vulgarity or obscenity, and it was very sensual. Priyanka then went on a world tour, and when she returned… I’m not sure what happened in the interim…”
He claimed that Akshay approached him and that they met on the set of his film Waqt, where Akshay informed him of scheduling issues. “By that time, I’d also learned about the other problems that had arisen between him and his wife,” Suneel continued. She was said to have issues with Priyanka… I believe that the profession comes with its own set of risks. Sometimes proximity, the individual’s lifestyles get in the way, and the media exaggerates it, not realizing how much loss a filmmaker can suffer as a result…”
People who have worked in the film industry have seen the risks and know what happens. I believe the wife was wrongly implicated because she was an actress. She’s collaborated with Shah Rukh Khan, Salman Khan, Aamir Khan, and Ajay Devgn, among others… If she’s worked so hard, she should understand that people shouldn’t take her work so seriously.”
While it’s not uncommon for actors to drop out of projects, he said he didn’t think Akshay would after they’d gotten so close. I’m not going to sue him because I think lawsuits are too expensive, but I do think he owes taxes. If I sue him, it will cost too much money, therefore I won’t. He insisted that he and Priyanka had never talked about it previously. and that Akshay was fine with working with him again on his upcoming film, Dosti. However, he acknowledged that this marked the end of their journey together, both professionally and personally.
Even though 2018 was a challenging year for him, Akshay Kumar remains one of the highest-paid actors in the country. Priyanka has made a name for herself in Hollywood, on the other hand.
